Almost forgot to give you a remaster today! I'm bringing this new rip out to replace a mono version that I first shared back at the very dawn of time (
2005!). I'm still not overjoyed with the sound, but sometimes you just have to take what you can get. This was from a pretty nice stereo copy, but I don't think this budget label used the very cleanest vinyl or had the best stamping practices. So sometimes you get what you pay for, and this record was not very expensive, either new or when I bought it at Goodwill. Anyhow, let's revisit Jack Benny's favorite caroler,
Dennis Day-
Christmas Is For The Family (Stereo Spectrum (Design) SS XS1, Stereo, 1958). Note that I've given you a correct cover this time. All those years ago, I thought it would be cute to photoshop together a stereo version with it's cool banner across the top with a mono copy to give you the Jack "Santa" Benny bit at the bottom. I've seen that scan pop up across the web since I did that, and I've regretted it ever since. This image is accurate down to the Compatible Fidelity sticker at lower left. The color may be off a bit since I don't think my monitor is properly calibrated, but it's close. Enjoy!
